401: Jocz, Jacob: The Jewish People and Jesus Christ
To the question : Who is Jesus of Nazareth? Judaism and Christianity give two opposite answers. In the difference of the answer lies their difference. Whenever the Church offers a more "Jewish" answer, the Lordship of Jesus Christ becomes a special issue. The moment we profess Jesus Christ as Lord a missionary situation is created. (The Jewish People and Jesus Christ, 1979, Jacob Jocz, p47) Our comment For Arians (JW's, Christadelphians) to appeal to Hindus, Jews and Muslims to support their false doctrine is nothing short of incredible! Doing such is as dishonest as it is deceptive! JW's have not comprehended that if they had the Governing Body themselves sit down and explain their view of God (Father-true God, Son-a god and Holy Spirit-the force or energy of God) Hindus, Jews and Muslims would immediately label JW's as TRINITARIANS or TWINITARIANS!

Anti-Trinitarians believe the Holy Spirit is God's active force or "electricity" and reject that the Holy Spirit is an actual person like the Father and the Son. Yet scripture has the Holy Spirit speaking, being called a HE, feeling emotions, making freewill decisions. Anti-Trinitarians not only reject the Holy Spirit is one of three members of the Godhead, (Trinity) they reject that the Holy Spirit even exists as a person at all! Arians like Jehovah's Witnesses and Christadelphians, for example, call the Holy Spirit "God's active force", "energy", "like electricity". Now we know that God does indeed have what they describe. ...

If you haven't been, let us notice some of the things that you are missing. 1) Ephesians 1:3 says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ." This verse tells us that every spiritual blessing is located in Christ. Only those ... It will be a horrible thing for a person, who thinks he is saved, when he stands before the Lord on the day of judgment, if he is still outside of Christ. He will have no salvation.

It was in God's eternal plan of redemption for Christ to come to this earth and take our punishment for our sins by dying for us so God can now be just in saving us.

One place is found in Isaiah 53:5-6, "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, and by His stripes we are healed...And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."

416: Major errors of Pentecostalism
... The following are some questions to keep in mind when encountering anything calling itself a revival. These are in no particular order. 1. IS THERE IS AN EMPHASIS ON THE HOLY SPIRIT AT THE EXPENSE OF JESUS CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD? If the speaker almost exclusively speaks of God and the Spirit, yet rarely speaks of Jesus Christ, there is a danger of lapsing into a practical Binity, or even modalism, instead of promoting the Trinity. However, in the New Testament (esp. John 14-16, Acts 1:8, 1 John 4:13, 5:7-8), the Holy Spirit's main job is described as bearing witness of Jesus Christ. If what is occurring is not bearing witness of Jesus Christ, then it is NOT of the Spirit. Too much of an emphasis on the Spirit runs the risk of planting seeds for a renewed modalism, i.e., the idea that we do not serve a Trinity, but one God who has worn 3 masks: the Father in the Old Testament, the Son while Jesus was on earth, and now the mask of the Holy Spirit. Modalism, which is the prominent feature ... ...

Scripture does not give us a fully formulated doctrine of the Trinity, but it contains all the elements out of which theology has constructed the doctrine (New Bible Dictionary, J. D. Douglas & F. F.

... Jesus, being God, is the creator of all things: "All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. " John 1:3 IV. Christ cannot be the angel Michael the arch-angel: Jehovah's Witnesses are taught through their Watchtower, that Jesus is the created arch-angel named Michael. This is false doctrine and heresy. Hebrews 1:5 proves Jehovah's Witnesses false teachers when they say Jesus is an angel: "For to which of the angels did He ever say, "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You"? And again, "I will be a Father to Him And He shall be a Son to Me"? " (Hebrews 1:5) Of course the answer is rhetorical: God never said to any angels "Today I have begotten You". But he did say this to Jesus. Therefore Jesus cannot be an angel, but we begotten at his resurrection as Acts 13:33 says, thereby fulfilling Ps 2:7. The self contradictory doctrine of the Watchtower has Jesus the creature, functioning as our co-creator (Jn 1:3; Col 1:16). But ... ...

Background: Paul, at the time he penned the Galatian ... God has functioned many times as his own divine messenger, does that make God an ANGEL?
